A proposed plan to cut 1-million dollars from the Scotts Valley School District was made public last week. A letter discussing the tentative plan, was mailed to parents Friday highlighting the need to continue cost cutting efforts in the wake of ongoing state budget cuts. District leaders are considering 5 fewer days of school, eliminating music classes in grades 6 through 12, eliminating all but one counselor, closing libraries at all 4 schools, increasing class size and closing the school career center. The official budgeting process for the 20-11-2012 school year won’t begin until January.
